- the order of the operations S 27 and S 28 may be reversed.
- the plurality of changed first objects are displayed (S 41 ).
- FIGS. 9A, 9B, 9C illustrate that an object is moved to an edge region and reduced in size by a user's touch swing input in the user terminal 10 according to one embodiment of the present invention.
- a user touches a point T 1 on the first object displayed on the display 120 , drags the first object to a point T 2 as it is thrown rightward like a swing, and releases the touch at the point T 2 ,
- the first object continues to slide and move rightward in response to such a user's input even after the user's touch is released. Then, a region A 1 is free from obstruction of the first object positioned 1 corresponding to a center region on the screen, and the first object is positioned in a region A 2 . A partial right side of the first object may get out of the region of the screen and disappear.
- the controller 100 may change the first object into the second object B when the first object is positioned within a predetermined distance from the right side of the screen, at least a part of the first object gets out of the screen, and the whole of the first object gets out of the screen.
- the second object B may be displayed as a semicircular shape, in which a mark for displaying the whole shape ( ⁇ ) as a full screen may be displayed at an upper portion of the displayed second object B, and a mark for displaying the minimum shape ( ) as a minimum screen may be displayed at a lower portion.
- This shape of the second object B is merely an example, and the second object B may have various different shapes.
- FIGS. 10A, 10B, 10C illustrate that an object moved and reduced in size is returned to a center region on a screen in the user terminal 10 according to one embodiment of the present invention.
- a user may touch the second object B positioned in the edge region on the screen of the display 120 , and drag it leftward as shown therein.
- a user touches a mark region about the display shape and size displayed on the second object B and changes the second object B into the first object A.
- a user's input for returning the second object B to the first object A may be varied depending on settings.
- the second object B may be touched, or may be dragged by a user to be changed in position.
- the second object B may be moved to a center region on the screen and changed into the first object A in accordance with a degree of touch swing.
- the second object B may be moved to and positioned in an opposite edge region in accordance with a user's touch swing. While the second object B is moving, the second object B may be changed into the first object A or may be just moved without the change.
- FIG. 11 illustrates the size, shape, color, transparency, etc. of an object moved and reduced in size in the user terminal 10 according to one embodiment of the present invention.
- the second object moved from the center region to the edge region on the screen of the user terminal 10 and reduced in size may be displayed with various sizes, shapes, color, transparency, etc.
- a second object B 1 is shaped like a semicircle and may include marks for displaying a full screen/minimized screen.
- the size of the second object B 1 may be previously set in accordance with a user's settings, or may be varied.
- the second object B 1 is positioned in the edge region, that is, in close-contact with the right side of the screen. Alternatively, the second object B 1 may be a little spaced apart from the right side of the screen without the close contact.
- the color of the second object B 1 may be set corresponding to the color of the first object of before the change.
- a second object B 2 is shaped like a rectangular shape and may include marks for enlargement/reduction.
- the second object B 2 may be changed in size.
- the second object B 2 may be set as a rectangular object, or may be changed in shape according to its positions.
- a second object B 3 is shaped like a semicircle, and may display a logo image of the first object of before change. Further, the second object B 3 may be highlighted to be distinguished from other objects. The second object B 3 highlighted to be distinguished from other second objects may include a broadcast image being broadcasted unlike a stored image of which reproduction is controllable, or a messenger of informing that a message arrives.
- a second object B 4 may be a triangular object.
- a second object B 5 may be positioned in an edge region on the screen but maintain the shape of the first object unlike other second objects.
- the second object B 5 may be provided to display content, and set to have transparency so as to less obstruct a view for other first objects. For instance, when a first object is of a schedule chart, brief content may be maintained and provide information to a user.
- FIG. 12 illustrates that objects are displayed as overlapped in the user terminal 10 according to one embodiment of the present invention.
- the second objects may pile up in the edge region on the screen.
- a user may move the plurality of first objects in similar directions and change them into the second objects.
- the controller 100 may position the moved second objects at opposite sides of the already positioned second object.
- the second objects E, F, G, H, I and J may be displayed as overlapped in accordance with settings. For example, when a user moves one first object rightward and changes it into a second object, it is expected that a desired second object is present in the moving direction.
- the second object when a user continues to move the first object in a similar direction without overlap, the second object may be positioned along a right edge region of the screen in a direction different from the moving direction. In this case, a user may be a little configured, and therefore the second objects may be overlapped and grouped. Of course, the second objects are overlapped enough as long as a center region of the screen is not obstructed.
- FIG. 13 illustrates descriptions about each of overlapped objects in the user terminal 10 according to one embodiment of the present invention.
- the second objects are overlapped as described in FIG. 12 , it may be difficult to know what application program corresponds to the object among the overlapped second objects. Therefore, when a user touches a group of second objects or when a user is within a predetermined distance from the screen of the display 120 to make touch, it may be guided what application program corresponds to each second object.
- the guide may be made with regard to every second object through a UI, or only the second object selected by a user.
- a guide UI (a) may be displayed with regard to the overlapped second objects E, F, G, H, I and J.
- FIG. 14 illustrates that an object moved to an edge region and reduced in size is returned to a center region on a screen by a user's touch swing input in the user terminal 10 according to one embodiment of the present invention.
- the second object is changed into the first object and then displayed on the screen.
- the first object may be moved and displayed in one of regions A 1 to A 2 in accordance with a user's speeds of dragging leftward as much as the distance D 1 . The higher the user's dragging speed is, the more the first object moves leftward. The lower the user's dragging speed is, the less the first object moves leftward.
- FIGS. 15A, 15B illustrate that a plurality of objects are moved to an edge region and reduced in size and returned in a user terminal according to one embodiment of the present invention.
- a user makes touches T 1 , T 2 and T 3 with a plurality of first objects A 1 , A 2 and A 3 using three fingers and then releases the touches while dragging and swinging them in a direction D 1 .
- the plurality of first objects A 1 , A 2 and A 3 are moved to the edge region in the direction D 1 and changed into the second object.
- the plurality of first objects are moved at a time and changed into respective first objects.
- a user makes touches T 4 , T 5 and T 6 with the plurality of second objects B, C and D using three fingers so as to release/change the second object into the first object, and then releases the touches while dragging and swinging them in a direction D 2 .
- the second object B, C and D are respectively changed into the plurality of first objects A 1 , A 2 and A 3 and displayed on the screen center region.
- a user can move the first object, which may obstruct a view for a center region on the screen of the display 120 , to an edge region on the screen, thereby intuitively and easily using the user terminal 10 .
